What’s the rationale for all of these new voting restrictions? Preventing voter fraud -- which might make sense if anyone could find any to prevent. Law professor Justin Levitt points out that since 2000 there have been more UFO sightings in the U.S. than documented cases of the type of voter fraud that could be prevented by photo ID— just nine cases of impersonation between 2000 and 2006 out of more than 400 million votes cast.

Doing quite well, myself. Unfortunately, the nation isn't. With a 1.93 percent average GDP increase over the last seven years (worst recovery in over 100 years), there is little increase in wealth to add or grow businesses, add jobs, or raises wages.

Re: Leaders of American History
An old Nun who was living in a convent next to a construction site noticed the co**** language of the workers and decided to spend some time with them to correct their ways. She decided she would take her lunch, sit with the workers and talk with them. She put her sandwich in a brown bag and walked over to the spot where the men were eating. Sporting a big smile, she walked up to the group and asked: "And do you men know Jesus Christ?" They shook their heads and looked at each other . . .

The Pastor entered his donkey in a race and it won. The Pastor was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the race again and it won again. The local paper read: PASTOR'S ASS OUT FRONT.

Could Jesus' house in Nazareth have been found?
A building thought to be where Mary and Joseph raised Jesus has been found by an archaeologist from the University of Reading. While conducting a wider archaeological study of Nazareth and its hinterland, in Israel, Dr Ken Dark identified a Byzantine church with a crypt or cellar containing a first-century AD house. The church matches the description in a famous late seventh-century pilgrim account, De Locis Sanctis (concerning the holy places) of the church built above the house where it...

Syrian war makes sudden appearance at convent in historic Christian town
. BEIRUT — High in the mountains above Damascus lies a town so remote that Syria’s war had passed it by, so untouched by time that its inhabitants still speak the language of Jesus. The violence ravaging the rest of Syria has finally caught up with Maaloula, renowned as the oldest Christian community in the world — and the last in which the same version of Aramaic that prevailed 2,000 years ago is the native tongue.

Re: Should Pastors Be Paid A Salary?
Some orders of priests take vows of poverty. I think this allows them to give up things that are materialistic, and devote their lives to the Lord. Doesn't work for Parish priests, though. They have to eat, buy clothes, entertainment, etc. In denominations in which the pastors are married, it is inconceivable that they could not take a salary- they have a family to support. True religious life (ie in a Monastery or Convent) is the only place this would work.
